ProSafe Managed Switch
Note: <ip6address> is also a valid parameter for routing packages that
support IPv6.
For switches that support a USB device, the copy command can be used to transfer files from
and to the USB device. The syntax for the USB file is: usb://<filename>. The USB device
can be either a source or destination in the copy command. It cannot be used as both source
and destination in a given copy command.
Note: Remember to upload the existing Switch CLI.cfg file off the switch
prior to loading a new release image in order to make a backup.
Parameters for the copy command are listed in the following table:
Source Destination Description
nvram:backup-config nvram:startup-config Copies the backup configuration to the startup
configuration.
nvram:clibanner <url> Copies the CLI banner to a server.
nvram:errorlog <url> Copies the error log file to a server.
nvram:log <url> Copies the log file to a server.

During the download of a configuration script, the copy
command validates the script. In case of any error, the
command lists all the lines at the end of the validation
process and prompts you to confirm before copying
the script file.
